Fuji FinePix S1000fd announcement clippings

The 10-MegaPixel FinePix S1000fd is perfect for advanced amateur photographers who want an affordable, step-up digital camera. It is equipped with a Fujinon 12x optical zoom (33mm-396mm equivalent), Fujifilm's proprietary Face Detection Technology with Automatic Red Eye Removal, and a Panoramic Shooting mode.Face Detection operates by identifying and prioritizing up to 6 faces in a framed scene, and then adjusting the focus and exposure accordingly to ensure the sharpness and clarity of human subjects in the picture, regardless of background. After a shot is captured each detected face is instantly checked for red eye; if it is found, it is corrected automatically, saving the time-consuming process of fixing it later.
